Yep, people act like hockey has entered some sort of uncharted territory when it's really far behind a number of sports in terms of the intensity and commitment that is asked of kids. Talk to a family with a high level gymnast about the hours they put in year round. The same goes for tons of other sports. The only thing that makes hockey different is the fact that it's a sport most of us on this board pay attention to.
